The Center for Common Law Studies is a higher education nonprofit focused on in-depth scholarship and programs centered on Anglo-American common law fundamentals, including their historical and philosophical roots and contemporary applications. Its activities aim to offer analytical perspectives and rigorous study not commonly found at many American or British law schools, through specialized programs and seminars conducted at the George Washington University Law School and coordinated with distinguished law professors and a Washington law institute. The organization collaborates with major law firms, federal and state courts, and government legal personnel to design and deliver educational programs that engage participants from around the world, with activity spanning connections to the University of Michigan for expanded resources and reduced reliance on Washington, DC. Based in the District of Columbia region, the center has a history of more than 25 years and has historically worked with institutions of high legal standing, presenting programs delivered to attendees from over 70 countries. A recent development notes a shift of most activities and programs to be centered around the University of Michigan’s resources, aligning its focus with broader scholarly and institutional support.
